The Copenhagen Resolution

The Copenhagen Resolution 65 was passed at the conference The Shadow Side of Wireless Society in Copenhagen, Denmark on October 9th, 2010. It is based on previous international appeals, resolutions and the Bioinitiative Report from Medical Doctors and Scientists who state the need for prevention of damage to public health from the exposure to radiation from Wireless Technology. It makes the following demands:
* A considerable lowering of guidelines and exposure to wireless microwave radiation, to a biologically based precautionary level, with a peak-level maximum of 0.6 V/m as recommended by the BioInitiative report. * Information and ofcial warnings for the general public, regarding the health risks from wireless microwave radiation with emphasis on increased risks for pregnant women and children. *
Warning labels on wireless radiation emitting products and a determination by the producers to design such products to emit as little radiation as possible, and emit radiation only when necessary. *
Restrict and discourage children`s access to, and use of wireless radiation emitting products. * Electro Hyper Sensitivity must be ofcially recognized as a functional impairment. * Enable and respect local community inuence on the location of wireless base stations and a full disclosure of all existing and planned wireless base-station locations. * Minimize wireless radiation exposure in public spaces occupied by vulnerable groups, like schools, day care facilities and public transport. * Establish White-Zones: low-radiation communities where Electro Hyper Sensitive people can live as well as providing nancial support for shielding from wireless radiation in existing homes. * Promote health safe alternatives to wireless technology. * Independent research must be undertaken.

The Sunower Project EMR Fact Sheet

Are You Unwittingly Being Affected By Electromagnetic Radiation?

While we may not be able to sense it with our ve senses (sight, sound, smell, taste, touch), we are now being exposed to from thousands to millions of times1 the amount of electromagnetic radiation we would normally get from natural sources (Sun, Earth, Stars etc.). Worldwide, a rapidly increasing number of people are becoming sensitive to the electromagnetic radiation (EMR) emitted by cell phone towers, cell phones, WiFi, WiMax, TETRA2, Smart Meters, etc. In fact, several European scientists have predicted that by 2017, 50% of the population may be electro-sensitive (ES) 3.
If you experience any of the following unexplained symptoms, you may in fact be unknowingly exhibiting the symptoms of ES yourself:
Headaches Nausea Brain Fog Memory Problems Fatigue Dizziness Insomnia Heart Pain/Palpitations Swollen Lymph Nodes Intestinal Disturbances Eye Pain Dry Eyes Vision Problems Night Sweats Excessive Thirst Increased Allergies/Sensitivities

If you put a frog in hot boiling water, it will jump out. However, if you put a frog in cold water and slowly heat the water, you can cook the frog because it will not notice the gradual change in temperature. Well, with the ever-increasing amount of ambient electromagnetic radiation in our environments, we might be experiencing the same fate as the frog that does not realize it is being cooked.

As a human being aware of being affected by electromagnetic radiation, I would like to ask you to consider the possibility this technology might adversely be affecting you and others around you and to be more conscious, considerate and compassionate when using your devices around other human beings especially in buses, trains, airplanes, where this radiation is reected and increased. Thank you!

What is Electro-sensitivity/Microwave Sickness? Electro-sensitivity/Microwave Sickness is a condition where a person feels sick when exposed to the EMR given off by cell phone towers (masts), DECT4, WiFi; and electronic devices such as mobile phones, and computers. Symptoms appear when the person is exposed to the offending EMR and diminish as the person moves out of range of the EMR. Major Symptoms: (Very often appearing with the installation of a nearby cell-phone tower, a home WiFi [Wireless Internet] or DECT system. [Cancer clusters start forming around cell towers after between three & seven years5.]) Headache Sleep disturbances (Insomnia) Dizziness Nausea Heart Palpitations Heart Pain Concentration Problems Fatigue Listlessness Indigestion Reddening of Skin Tingling Sensations Anxiety Attacks Memory Problems Swollen Lymph Nodes Excessive Thirst Frequent Urination Vision Problems Tinnitus (Ringing in the Ears), etc.

The Research: Biological Effects

Thousands of Studies Are Showing Biological Effects
Increases Cancer Risk * 200% increase in Brain Tumors and Acoustic Neuromas for those using a cell phone on the same side of the head for 10 years (average 30 minutes per day) 48. * Children who start using a cell phone before the age of 20 are 5 times more likely to get brain cancer 49. * Cell Phone Radiation Breaks DNA leading to mutated genes cancers, and deformities 50. * There is evidence that we are indeed moving towards a brain tumor epidemic. Experts are predicting a 2000% increase in brain tumors the next 20 years 51. Affects Fertility and Breaks DNA * Cell Phone Use/Exposure decreases sperm count and sperm motility (the ability for the sperm to nd its way to the egg) 52. * Experiments show increased rates of deformities/mortality in chick embryos 53. Triggers (and may cause) Allergic Reactions *Increases allergic reactions like eczema, asthma, and hay fever 54. Disrupts Hormones and Neurotransmitters * EMR exposure changes the levels of hormones and neurotransmitters in the brain like melatonin, serotonin, dopamine, norepinephrine, and acetylcholine55. Changes in these hormones/neurotransmitters are associated with sleep disturbances, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome, Attention Decit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), CFS, miscarriages, heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer`s, Parkinson`s, depression, behavior changes, chemical sensitivities, and suicide56. * Produces an (initial) increase in the adrenal stress hormones Adrenaline and Cortisol connected with restlessness and anxiety and eventuating in adrenal exhaustion57. Weakens Immune System * Research has shown that just having a wireless device on your body in standby mode can weaken your immune system58. * Decreases Natural Killer Cell counts necessary for defending against pathogens and destroying abnormal (virally-infected and cancer) cells59. * Changes the T-helper/T-suppressor (T4/T8) cell ratio from normal to abnormal which has been shown to lead to increased susceptibility to viral, fungal, and bacterial infections60. Symptoms include "sore throats, lowgrade fevers, weakness, persistent fatigue, and swollen lymph glands61." Can Damage Kidney and Heart Function In a study carried out by Dr George Sajin at the European Research Institute for Electronic Components based in Bucharest, samples of blood were exposed to varying degrees of microwave radiation over a period of between 10 and 60 hours. Even at levels lower than those emitted by mobile phones, the cells leaked hemoglobin. The unsequestered iron from hemoglobin can accumulate in and hence damage kidney and heart tissue 62. Affects Behavior of Children of Pregnant Mothers Who Used Cell Phones * A large study, surveying more than 13,000 children, found that women who used mobile phones when pregnant were more likely to give birth to children with behavioral problems. These included developing hyperactivity and difculties with conduct, emotions and relationships by the time they reached school age. The likelihood was even greater if the children themselves used the phones before the age of seven 63. WHO-Acknowledged Studies Find Cancer Clusters Around Cell Towers * 80% of (W.H.O. acknowledged) studies on people living in the vicinity of mobile-phone base-stations, show a signicantly increased risk of neurological diseases, impaired well-being and cancer 64.

The photo on the bottom is a cell exposed to 24 hours of cell phone radiation. The trails coming out of the cell are called micronuclei broken DNA leaking out of the cells47.

Fifty Percent of Population Affected by Year 2017?

There has been a drastic increase in the number of people affected by EMR and it is predicted that by the year 2017 over half the population may suffer from symptoms of electro-sensitivity. In 2008, 57.25 million prescriptions for sleeping pills were issued in the US.6; brain tumors are the leading cause of cancer death in children7; an estimated one in 110 children (in the USA) now suffer from Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)8 up from 1 in 2000 in the 70s9; one in four Americans now suffer from diabetes or pre-diabetes conditions10 and one in seven couples suffer from fertility problems11.

The Vienna Doctors Chambers Rules for Cell Phone Use Cell phone calls should be as few and as brief as possible. Children
and teenagers under 16 should not use cell phones. Cell phones should not be held near the head while making and receiving calls. Cell phones should not be used in vehicles (cars, buses, trains) the radiation there is higher! When sending text messages the cell phone should be held as far away from the body as possible! A caller should position herself several meters away from other people the radiation is harmful to them as well! Never use a cell phone to play games! Headphones (earplugs) may also be unsafe the wire may attract radiation! Wireless Networks (WiFi, WiMax, etc.) produce high amounts of radiation! Always switch your cell phone off at night and never keep it near your head while sleeping. Never keep your cell phone in your front pocket the radiation can affect male fertility.

Deformed cows near cell phone towers in Germany are just one example among many animal deformities appearing around the world. (Research has also connected the worldwide disappearance of frogs, birds, and insects [most recently bees] with the dramatic increase of electrosmog permeating our planet.12).
